The company New Orleans hired to remove four monuments related to the
Confederacy is backing out of that project, after its associates and
their relatives received death threats and threatening calls, according
to a recently filed court document.

An attorney for the company, the Baton Rouge-based H&O
Investments, said in a Tuesday letter to city officials that after
H&O made preparations to remove the controversial monuments, its
offices received multiple telephone complaints, “including death threats
personally directed to [company owner] David Mahler, and his staff, in
addition to threatening calls received by his wife at their residence.”

Good lord, they're playing their little part well, aren't they? How boring.
